Chapter 130 Welfare
Seeing Shi Luo always picking up things from other people's lunch boxes, Sister Zhou looked up at the owner of the lunch box. Her eyes lit up and she became interested.
"Xiao Luo, who is that person next to you? Is he from the same department in our factory? Why haven't I seen him before?"
Shi Luo swallowed the bean sprouts in his mouth and introduced, "My buddy Jiang Hao, he started working in the accounting department today and is staying at my house now."
After that, he continued to introduce Jiang Hao, "This is Sister Zhou from my office."
Sister Zhou: "Oh, you're already working in the accounting department at this age. You're really young and promising. Do you have a partner?"
When Jiang Hao heard this straightforward question, the bean sprouts on his chopsticks fell off, and his mind raced. This was a great opportunity to solve the problem once and for all.
"I don't have a partner. What's the matter? Sister, are you going to introduce someone to me? That would be great. My mother is looking forward to me getting married and starting a family."
Sister Zhou looked at Jiang Hao. Well, he was a handsome man and a regular employee. The only drawback was that he had no house. But it was not a big problem. He could rent a house first and then get one when the factory distributed houses.
Seeing Sister Zhou's satisfied look, Jiang Hao smiled and continued, "I have certain requirements for my partner. If Sister Zhou introduces someone, she must meet my requirements."
Sister Zhou didn't find it strange. How could a regular worker looking for a partner these days not have any requirements? "What else do you want? Can't I introduce you to a regular worker?"
Jiang Hao shook his head, "Being a regular employee is not enough. I am so outstanding, so I must have higher requirements.
I am not an outsider, so I will tell you straight, first of all, the woman must be beautiful, kind-hearted, capable of both housework and cooking, and she must be an only child.
Secondly, you need to have a house and a job, and it is best if both parents are working. Also, don't ask for too much betrothal gifts. If possible, it would be best if you can give more dowry.
Oh, right, when I was a kid, I was naughty and jumped around and got injured. Later, I starved myself and my body became damaged. The doctor said I can't have children anymore. Big sister, I'm a good person. If you can't have children, you must tell the woman in advance. Otherwise, if you make trouble with me about having children after we get married, I won't tolerate it. "
Sister Zhou was shocked when she heard this. Although Jiang Hao looked good, he couldn't have children. It would have been fine if he couldn't have children, but he had such high demands. The most outrageous thing was that he actually told her such a big defect openly. Is he mentally ill? Otherwise, how could he say such crazy things?
Shi Luo looked at Sister Zhou, who looked like she had seen a ghost, and asked curiously, "Sister Zhou, who are you going to introduce someone to? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Sister Zhou was still unaware of the situation and continued, "My little girl is eighteen years old now. She's a regular employee at the factory clinic, collecting money and dispensing medicine. I'm not in a rush, but I want to try and find a good partner. The main thing is that I'm afraid if I don't find her a good partner soon, she'll be targeted and exploited by someone with bad intentions."
Jiang Hao added fuel to the fire, "Auntie, your daughter is an only child, and your husband has a job."
Sister Zhou finally realized what was happening and shook her head in fear, fearing that Jiang Hao would target her daughter. "No, no, she's not an only child. My daughter is not suitable for you. She's not suitable for you in any way."
Jiang Hao said with regret, "Aunt, I thought we could be uncle and son-in-law. What a pity."
Shi Luo saw that Sister Zhou was shaking her hands so hard that they were about to break. She also had an expression that she hated herself for not controlling her mouth. She tried hard to suppress the upward curve of her mouth and said, "Auntie, don't pay attention to him. His family has spoiled him, which has led to him being overconfident.
You are really worried about your daughter, but there are so many good single young men in the factory, your daughter will definitely find the right one."
Sister Zhou nodded. "Oh, hope. You don't understand. Raising a son for a hundred years means worrying about him until he's ninety-nine. My son is a girl, and she's so outstanding. I have to worry even more. Hey, Shi Luo, how could I forget about you? Do you have a partner?"
Shi Luo felt that he was frightened a thousand times, but he saw that Jiang Hao was not frightened at all. Otherwise, how could Sister Zhou cast a wide net and catch more fish?
"I'm still young and don't plan on dating for the next few years. The main reason is that my grandfather told me not to get married until I'm 25. I have to listen to him. If I look for a partner now and wait for so long before getting married, I won't waste the woman's time."
When Sister Zhou heard this, she nodded in understanding. Alas, if she hadn't asked someone to tell her daughter's fortune, she wouldn't be so anxious to find a partner for her. Alas, that fortune teller was really something. He only said that it would be best to get married within two years, and when asked about other things, he would say that the secret must not be revealed.
Oh, today's masters are so irresponsible. Why don't they think about how easy it is to find a partner? They don't even remind me where to find a reliable person for my daughter. It's really so difficult for me.
After finishing their meal and washing their lunch boxes, they hurried back to the office.
The benefits will be distributed on time at 1:00 p.m.
The director of the factory committee had already discussed with the directors of each department and workshop. In order not to delay work, they had arranged which department would receive the benefits first and which department would receive the benefits later. The workers of each department only needed to collect the benefits within the specified time.
Because the workers needed to bring their own things to pack the loose items, Shi Luo and the other three had already clearly defined the division of labor. Shi Luo was responsible for providing a steady stream of supplies to the office, Xiao Feng and Sister Zhou were responsible for weighing and packing, and Uncle Chu was responsible for calling people and seeing their signatures.
A table was moved to the office door to block the aisle. The table was filled with boxes and baskets filled with various supplies. Xiao Feng and Sister Zhou stood on each side and were ready.
Uncle Chu held a stack of names and looked at the people in line. He called out, "According to regulations, the factory is providing everyone with the following benefits this year: half a pound of peach cakes, peanuts, and candies per person, and half a bar of soap. Those who are called by me need to bring their work ID to claim the benefits. Those who don't have a work ID or are not here in person will not receive any."
After Uncle Chu finished speaking, he started calling people according to the list.
Except for the soap, which is ready-made, the other three items have to be weighed. One item has to be weighed twice, and three items have to be weighed six times. After weighing, they have to wait for the workers to confirm and put the items into the containers they brought with them. Then the workers have to go to Uncle Chu to sign before they can leave.
After distributing benefits to hundreds of people, Sister Zhou and Xiao Feng were so exhausted that they felt like their arms and hands were not their own.
They were tired, and Shi Luo was tired too. When he saw that the supplies on the table were gone, he had to quickly move the boxes of supplies to replace them. If he didn't have enough strength, he probably wouldn't be able to move all these things in the afternoon.
The four of them finally distributed all the benefits before 4:30, and then they all collapsed in their chairs.
Shi Luo asked weakly, "Sister Zhou, why don't we ask for help with the huge workload of distributing benefits today?"
Sister Zhou glanced at the innocent Shi Luo and sighed, "He's just a fool." "These are supplies. If you ask outsiders to help, there's no way to tell if there's more or less. Besides, they have their own work to do. If we ask for help, we have to give them some benefits. Who will give these benefits?"
Shi Luo understood that this was because they were afraid that someone would do something dishonest and embezzle money.
After Sister Zhou finished speaking, she felt relieved and took out a dozen oil-paper bags from the cabinet and distributed them to the three people.
"Each person will receive a bar of soap, two pounds of candy, peanuts, and peach cakes. Okay, Brother Chu, where's your list? Once the four of us sign it, I'll have to deliver it to Director Jin."
